Oil and gas producers spend over USD 8 billion annually on chemicals to prevent flow assurance and asset integrity risks , yet half of operators view programs as reactive and ineffective. Optimization workflows remain largely manual and infrequent, creating data gaps and leaving wells improperly treated more than 50% of the time. This is linked to over 20% of electric submersible pump (ESP) failures, driving costly interventions and production losses.

Learn how digitalizing workflows with edge/cloud intelligence, connected equipment, physics-based risk models, and autonomous action transforms manual workflows executed from on average 60 days to every minute, proven to extend ESP run life by over 300%.
